Mixing Bowl By ANNE ALLAN Hello Homemakers! Most of us eonsidered using a spice in a stan- dard cake or bréad mixture for variety of flavour, We frequently use cinnamon, casia, nutmeg, cloves and allspice for their fragrance. Many years ago these spices were considered suitable gifts for kings. They were used as perfumes, bath oils and medicines for the most part. When they were used in food the people knew spice was added to camouflage the tainted flavour. According to history, merchants set sail around the world to obtain spices. It was said that Christopher Columbus was lured to the west to find a new route for the spice merchants. We also read of the English gradually gaining posses- sion of the Indian Empire as the spice tragdt irfcreased. +i The various spices are derived different parts of different plants. For instance, cloves are the dried flower bud of the tropical clove tree of Zanzibar, off the east coast of Africa. Cinnamon is a fragrant spice known since Biblical times and is the pulverized inner bark of the under branches of the laurel tree. It grows about 30 feet in height and flourishes from Cey- lon to Arabia. Cassia is similar in flavour to cinnamon and is some- times substituted for it but it comes from the bark of a different laurel plant. The leaves, the fruit and the root of the laurel all yleld oil of much value. Years ago the oil was used for making candles, Mace and nutmeg grow on the same tree which grows anywhere in the West Indies and Madagascar, There you find extensive groves of nutmeg trees which grow to the age of nine years before bearing fruit. The nutmeg is the kernel. By the way, this tree attains a height of 60 feet and is an evergreen, It has pointed leaves and pale yellow flowers which hang in drooping clusters resembling lilies-of-the val- ley. As the fruit ripens the fleshy part becomes hard; finally splits open at the top disclosing a bright scarlet membrane partly covering the nut. From this membrane comes the mace we like for our fruit cakes. Grandmother used to buy the nutmeg and grate it on a small three inch curved grater. All- spice so named because the mariner who discovered it believed it could be used for other spices, is grown in Jamaica where it grows in wet, humid areas. Our familiar black pepper which is now so hard to obtain, is the product of a climbing shrub grown in the Bast Indies an@ other trop- jcal climates The plant bears a small green berry about the size of a pea which turns red upon! ripening. When the berries begin to change colour, they are gathered, cleaned and dried in the sun. As they become hlack they are sorted and sold ac -2npercorns..
